About Yoke's Fresh Markets
Yoke's Fresh Markets is an employee-owned grocery chain headquartered in Spokane, Washington. Established in 1946 by Marshall and Harriet Yoke, the company has grown to encompass 19 stores across Washington, Idaho, and Montana. It has a significant presence in the Spokane area.
